THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A BLIZZARD

BEFORE SUNRISE WILL INTENSIFY EXPLOSIVELY TODAY. SNOW...AS WELL AS

SLEET AND EVEN SOME FREEZING RAIN NEAR...SOUTH...AND EAST OF

PHILADELPHIA WILL CHANGE TO ALL SNOW DURING THIS MORNING AS THE

STORM MOVES NORTHWARD. THIS WILL CAUSE WINDS TO BACK TO NORTHEAST

AND NORTH AND BRING COLDER AIR INTO THE REGION. WITH HEAVY SNOW

EXPECTED TO DECREASE VISIBILITIES...AND STRONG WINDS GUSTING TO 35

TO 45 MILES AN HOUR THIS AFTERNOON...BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE

EXPECTED AT TIMES MAINLY FROM ABOUT MIDDAY AND THROUGH THE

AFTERNOON...POSSIBLY PERSISTING INTO EARLY TONIGHT BEFORE TAPERING

OFF. HOWEVER...WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE STRONG THIS EVENING SO

INCHES INTO EARLY TONIGHT...WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS STRADDLING

THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR.

THAT TRAVEL BE CURTAILED DUE TO THE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS...AND

ONLY DRIVE IF IT IS TRULY AN EMERGENCY SITUATION.

A BLIZZARD WARNING MEANS SEVERE WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE

EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. FALLING AND BLOWING SNOW WITH STRONG WINDS

AND POOR VISIBILITIES ARE LIKELY. THIS WILL LEAD TO WHITEOUT

CONDITIONS...MAKING TRAVEL EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. DO NOT TRAVEL. IF

YOU MUST TRAVEL...HAVE A WINTER SURVIVAL KIT WITH YOU. IF YOU GET

STRANDED...STAY WITH YOUR VEHICLE.
